whitewash is combination of lime(hydrated lime which is used in building mortar) you can find in bunnings or any building suppliers.
and you need some water and 10CC of pest oil.
for one litre whitewash (one litre water or 1000CC water and 1000CC lime and 12CC oil) mix together and use painting brush for painting your lower tree. that's all
